Ashley C.

Cons

“I have to manually send invites and manage time-zone changes for each student, which can be time-consuming when I have many recurring lessons or students in different countries.”

José J.

English Teacher

“I have also noticed occasional Bugs and Issues such as delayed notifications, synchronization problems between devices, or events not updating properly in real time. While these issues are not very frequent, they can still create confusion and affect productivity when handling important appointments or work meetings.”

Abhijeet M.

Computer Software

“The biggest downside is its limited customization and advanced features—it works great for basic scheduling, but it can feel too simple if you need more complex planning tools or deeper personalization.”

Melinda W.

Owner

Cons

“The Timely app has some bugs which should be fixed in next updates.”

Ritu G.

Scientist

“Not offering clients slots that are available, booking clients in slots that aren’t supposed to be available and open times in the diary are not showing to customers.”

Rebecca G.

Massage therapist

“The software is relatively expensive compared to some other time-tracking and scheduling tools on the market. While Timely provides some basic reporting features, it doesn't offer as many advanced reporting options as some other tools.”
